Geocache of the Week (March 2022)
The start coordinates will bring you to the visitor center for registration for the mosque,
several shops, supermarket a food-court and to the underground entrance to the mosque itself.
To get the final coordinates of this cache,
you have to solve five small tasks outside and inside the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque.
After you made the correct calculations, you will find a magnetic container somewhere around the mosque.
Good luck, enjoy and happy caching.
Please note that the mosque is open for public
Fridays from 09:00 to 12:00 (Last admission at 11:30)
and from 15:00 to 22:00 (Last admission at 21:30)
other days from 09:00 to 22:00 (Last admission at 21:30)
Stage 1: Count all glass domes in front of you. = A
Stage 2: Count the rectangle flower boxes along the stairs left and right from you,
when you have the mosque at your back. = B
Stage 3: Count the golden ornaments at the top of the pillars in the front row. = C

you can see a clock for the prayer timings,
Fajr is which of the daily prayers? 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th or 5th? = E
x = (C * D) + (2 * A * B) + (B * C) - B - E
y = (B * C) + (A * C) + (A * B) - C + D
Find the final at: N 24˚ 24.x' E 054˚ 28.y'
